RE: Standard status of RFC 3879

[Christian Huitema <huitema at windows.microsoft.com>]

I am getting enquiries along the lines of "OK, this was a proposed standard 5 years ago, it has not progressed, does it mean it is now obsolete?"

Of course, I can reply that status doesn't matter, that for all practical purposes Proposed Standards are just as standards as Draft Standards or Internet Standards.
